Do I need to replace something in the rear suspension, or just have my spine suffer another year?
I installed the springs and shackles in october '04, and expected them to settle. 9 or so months later, and maybe 10,000 miles, including a couple day long offroading trips, and they look like this:
Lately, I've been loaded down about this much:
Seriously, the ride is breaking my back, even with the softest shocks possible. I did drive most of the last year with an extra axle (the whole thing) in the back area, and a bunch of other crap. Now that I've put a heavier axle underneath, its even worse. Do I just need to put 350 lbs of concrete in back?
